Charles J. Kocher worked on a wide array of legal matters - from pharmaceutical products liability litigation to white collar matters- at one of Philadelphia's largest law firms before joining the firm in 2010.

He worked with all phases of trial preparation, including witness examinations, developing expert reports, and taking and defending depositions. In one important personal injury case, he successfully argued a summary judgment motion before the esteemed Hon. Jack B. Weinstein in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, securing an early victory for his client and eliminating the need for a trial.

At SMBB, Mr. Kocher represents small businesses and other individuals who have been injured by price-fixing conspiracies in violation of the antitrust laws. He also represents injured investors of Ponzi schemes. Mr. Kocher received his undergraduate degree, cum laude, from Georgetown University in 2001, and his law degree from Villanova University School of Law in 2004, where he was a managing editor of the Villanova Law Review.

Upon graduation from law school, Mr. Kocher clerked for U.S. District Judge Clarence C. Newcomer, a celebrated judge who sat on the federal bench for more than thirty years in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Mr. Kocher is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
